til the season for first communion gifts

Yes, this is the season for first communion gifts -- spring is coming slowly but surely. That means more sunshine, warmth, getting ready for Easter which is timed to coincide with the rebirth of the land after a long hard winter. Just the weather for girls to wear beautiful white communion dresses. Just the weather for hunting for Easter eggs in the grass. Green grass springing up, tulips and other flowers blooming into many bright cheerful colors, birds flying in from the northern roosts to sing and build nests and lay eggs.
